...in response to the person who mentioned that the Glass family still has a 
lot of demons, I agree. Just think of all the somatic complaints alone in the 
family: Franny always seems ill. SHe has the measles during RHTRC, right? 
Blows her nose all the way through F&Z too.(The section where she faints in 
the restaurant, that sequence, might be the most sureal thing ive ever read).

Also Buddy was ill during boot camp and hacked his way through RHTRC.  Im not 
really sure about Boo Boo but Bessie was a chain smoker, though healthy 
enough to have seven children, I might add so she is exempt.It seems as 
though Seymour was the only "physically" healthy Glass, though he is pale in 
Bananafish.Anyway, thats a good point and I agree with you..
